Milk painting

We decided it was time for another fun experiment so I suggested to do some milk painting. It's easy and doesn't require fancy ingredients. All that's necessary is food colours, washing up liquid and milk. Obviously. We poured some milk into a shallow dish, added the food colouring and then the fun could begin. Just add a little washing up liquid onto a cocktail stick and hold it into the milk. No moving required the colour starts twirling and moving away just by itself. Magic. We had good fun with this.

For our second attempt Big Monkey wanted to use blue and green only. On the left photo you can see how the colours spread out and away from the cocktail stick.

The end result of the many colours was really pretty. The blue and green combo was a bit samey in the end but still pretty.
